10 Things Research Proves Women Are Better At Than Men
1. Girls tend to get better grades at school than boys.
Research has plenty of studies on which gender outsmarts the other. More often than not, we have seen men as smarter and physically stronger. But here are some studies that will make you reconsider those stereotypes you grew up to believe.
From kindergarten, girls show more self regulation than boys. They tend to follow rules, pay attention to specific instructions and details as well as display an overall sense of self discipline by working through long term assignments despite boredom and frustration. Girls are also more likely to choose their homework before indulging in relaxing activities like watching T.V, reading or surfing the internet.
2. Girls are better at mathematics and science.
The sciences and math are considered subjects in which males are expected to perform better due to the higher enrollment of boys to classes like engineering, chemistry, and quantum mechanics. However, girls get overall higher grades in school making them better than boys in science, even if they are not comfortable with the subject.
3. Girls are better at making computer games.
One always considers gaming as a male hobby with the media depicting boys as die-hard gamers and the stereotyped talent pool of game creators. A study by the University of Sussex revealed that girls were better computer programmers than boys, by creating a more complex coding system while designing their 3D role playing game.
4. Women can handle the stress of a job interview better.
The University of Western Ontario found that women handle the stress of a job interview better than men. It was found that women come better prepared by researching on the company and having mock interviews with friends before the final day. Men, on the other hand, took things easy and only prepared at the last minute.

5. Women are more likely to survive a car accident.
They say women are horrible drivers, but did you know men are 77% more likely to die in car accident? Sounds bizarre, but the Carnegie Mellon University carried out tests to prove that men are more careless while driving.
6. Testosterone is not good for investing?
Apparently not! Excess testosterone makes male traders take higher risks. Female traders are more calm in their approach, hence making healthier investments. Ever wondered why Warren Buffet is so rich? He invests like a woman!
7. Women make better bosses and managers.
Female bosses tend to play a maternal role at the work place. They can be your worst nightmare and they can be a close friend who solves problems. Women are better able to understand emotions and body language making them rational thinkers and team coordinators.
8. Women have a stronger immune system.
A study by McGill University indicated that estrogen gave women an edge when it came to fighting off infections. The hormone produced by the female reproductive system confronts a certain enzyme that hinders the body's first line of defense against bacteria and viruses.
9. Daughters are more likely to care for their parents.
36% of US women take care of their elderly parents as compared to 16% of men.
10. Girls are more economical to raise in the long run.
Make-up, jewellery, clothes, shoes are things that are said to empty the pockets of parents. But a study by TIME Money shows that 41% of young men require financial assistance from their parents as compared to 31% of their female counterparts. Psychologists suggest that this is because as children, boys are more likely to get an allowance than girls.
